(...) snip The photos look event better than the cad images.... I like the way you were able to incorporate the easily personalizable nose-art & insignia. I like the one with invasion strips the best. drc (21 years ago, 17-Jan-04, to lugnet.build.military)

(...) Dan, The ship is nice and all, but I think I'm more stunned by the size and shear patience to build that (bridge, display stand, coffin, Wall of China) underneath it. Aaron S (21 years ago, 15-Jan-04, to lugnet.build.military)

(...) Wow, that is really cool. My guess is that it is BB55 North Carolina circa 1943-1944. I can't wait to see it is finished. Looks great so far. I like the lines of the bow and the turrets. The 5-38 turrets look great. The dazzle cammoflage (...) (21 years ago, 15-Jan-04, to lugnet.build.military, FTX)

(...) I hear ya on the canopy thing. At first it was going to be an open cockpit. But then figured I would try to use a hinge and canopy. It has been fun to do stuff away from space. Thanks for the comments. Jamie (URL) (21 years ago, 12-Jan-04, to lugnet.build.military, lugnet.space, FTX)
